Assessment comments

In order to pass the subject at the first opportunity it will be necessary to have a participation of at least 70% of the scheduled evaluable activities. Likewise, the student must obtain at least a grade of 4.5 out of 10 points in theory, and 4 out of 10 in the practical part.

In order to pass the subject in the second opportunity (July), the student, depending on the result of his first assessment, will have to take a written objective test and pass the practical part. The need to take one or both of the second-chance examinations will be indicated in the first opportunity grades.

The qualifications obtained in the evaluable activities will be kept only during the corresponding academic year except for the practical part. To obtain the qualification of "not presented" the student will not be able to participate in more than 30% of the scheduled assessable activities. In the case of students with part-time dedication or specific learning modalities and support for diversity, the assessment of the objective tests will be the same, and the continual assessment of participation may be replaced by an individual work proposed by the teacher and evaluated in tutorials. In the case of students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance, the same evaluation criteria will be followed for the 1st and 2nd opportunity as for the rest of the students.

Fraud on the tests or assessment activities will directly imply the grade of failed  '0' in the subject in the corresponding opportunity, invalidating like this any grades obtained in all the assessment activities towards the extraordinary announcement.
